"You don't respect our ball because we're an HBCU ... I know the good old boy network. That time is over with. Prairie View A&M plays real ball." -- @coachjack212
I talked to Prairie View leaders about team's glaring omission from THSCA's Coaching School. chron.com/sports/college/art…

Q: "How personally disappointed or frustrated are you with the president's decision to endorse Ken Paxton today?"
.@LeaderJohnThune: "Sen. Cornyn is a principled conservative. He is a very effective senator for the state of Texas…None of us control what the president does."

Good introspection (as usual) from Tari on seeing Will Wade in New Orleans.
"We didn't really chat with anything having to do on the court.
"Will Wade, he's one of the best coaches, if not the best coach, I've ever played for. He called me the [one] year anniversary after my father died. He reaches out, and that's to all his players, he looks out for everybody who played for him."
"Our relationship goes beyond basketball. I'm glad to see him back. All the Texas guys here know we're back, LSU's back."

Excited to share this one ⬇️
“There was nothing but a lot of rain, a lot of water, a lot of mud & 1 million mosquitos.”
@astros have one of MLB’s most fervent Hispanic fan bases. That’s no accident. Meet René Cárdenas, the Godfather of Spanish-language baseball in Houston.

Happy @WBCBaseball week, Houston.

My biggest takeaway from @HoustonTexans practice facility and HQ announcement yesterday? The current setup at NRG Stadium isn’t sufficient.
Here’s former Texans’ tight end Owen Daniels on his old digs and its challenges:

More from @KDTrey5 on his transformative year in Austin:
“That's the foundation, that's where I started at. I left home first and went there. I feel like that's a huge, huge part of my journey … That's where I built my confidence.”

Kevin Durant finishes with 39 points, most in his @HoustonRockets career.
Rockets win 110-105.
🚀6 threes and some supreme shot-making tonight from @KDTrey5. Much-needed for still-scuffling Houston group.

New: A ton of trash ends up in Buffalo Bayou, Houston's urban waterway. I spent a morning with the people who clean trash out of the bayou with a sucking boat. Along the way, I learned about the never ending battle to clean up pollution. 📸/📝 by me:

🚨 Houston vs Texas Tech tonight 🚨
Tonight at the Fertitta Center should be one of them ones. Get your popcorn ready

New @chron: “I understand & know this is a process, a long process.”
I chatted w/Patrick & Tilman Fertitta at Toyota Center on Saturday. Tilman noted championship hopes. Patrick took a more patient approach, a hallmark of his role w/@HoustonRockets.

Wrote a bit today @chron on Tari Eason’s starting push, Ime Udoka’s patience and what feels like a 2026 eventuality.
I also don’t think Ime minds the comments from Tari much, if at all. Two 𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 similar competitors.

One more Christmas story @chron before tip-off in Los Angeles:
There’s one constant for Kevin Durant amid five NBA franchises and soon-to-be 13 Christmas Day appearances. His mom, Wanda, by his side each holiday, a reminder of his family’s journey.

New @chron:
“He’s the main culprit I’ve seen for the last 20 years.”
Thursday is the fifth Christmas Day battle between Kevin Durant and LeBron James. It may very well be the last, the final chapter of a rivalry to be appreciated before it’s gone.

After Derek Stingley Jr. pick six, Kamari Lassiter called his teammate: “The best in the world”
“Every time you throw it at him, it’s like playing with fire. I know he’s an old man now, but he got his first pick six!”

After the Texans win, Jalen Pitre was in his basketball bag when describing his teammates:
🏈 Nico and CJ = Shaq and Kobe
🏈 Derek Stingley Jr. = LeBron + Kobe + Curry + Derek Jeter
🏈 Jalen Pitre = Patrick Beverley
